Ms Sharmon Reddington

Registered Counselor

“Providing online counselling to pregnant and postpartum mothers.”

About Me

I guide pregnant and postpartum mothers through the unique emotional landscape of this life stage, offering online Counseling. As a Registered Counsellor, I provide a calm, supportive space to explore feelings without judgment. We work together to navigate challenges, offering practical strategies you can use daily. This flexible approach means support fits into your busy schedule, right from your home.

Approach

Offering online support during pregnancy and after birth, I focus on gentle pacing and practical steps that fit around your life and changing body. Sessions from my Knysna base in the Western Cape are held in English via secure video, creating a calm, private space where we name feelings, track triggers and build simple coping tools to practise between meetings. I bring attention to body image and fertility-related worries through short, achievable practices you can use daily. This way suits parents seeking steady, realistic support.
